Here is a update on Lesley. We all went over yesterday and had a get together since Lesley's sister Barb and niece came in from California. So the whole family was there. When we got there Lesley was upstairs sleeping. When she did come down I almost fell off my chair. I almost didn't recognize her. It was the saddest thing I have seen lately. The cancer is all on her right side and her poor eye is swollen closed almost. it almost looked like she had had a stroke and she is already going to need a wheelchair or walker as she is so weak. I have been around many people with cancer and even worked in a hospital and senior center. I never saw anything move so fast. Has anyone ever heard of sarcoma cancer? That is what she is dealing with. I had just saw her when she was in the hospital and there were NO physical signs at that time. She just found out about the cancer itself on Fathers day. so yes it is a very fast moving illness. Please continue to keep us all in your prayers. Especially Lesley, Mary and Missy.
Mary came home from the hospital Friday. I understand she is having a nurse come in but she is not doing well at all either. I so wish I could go to Maryland and help her out too. It is just so hard on everyone involved.
And Missy is going back in two weeks for the biopsy they took from her stomach lump. So please say lots of prayers as these are just a few people I know that them.
God Bless you all and yours
I will continue praying for all listed above.
Thanks Again Heather
